focus areas
The top lines of effort of Death Ray, where we have identified shortcomings and are working to provide solutions
ECONOMY OF POWER
In an extended-length collapse scenario, or environment with a contested supply chain, a constant supply of disposable batteries is not guaranteed.
We define Economy of Power as getting the highest level of operational value from the least amount of disposable energy sources. On an extended scale this is the concept of converting energy from natural and infinite sources (solar panels, wind turbines, hydropower, etc.) to reusable and operationally relevant forms.
Death Ray Designs seeks to apply of economy of power, extending a discerning individual’s capability even when they cannot expect resupply or a wall outlet.
Nocturnal systems
At Home
Statistically, bad things happen during the night. We aim to offer the prepared civilian gear that will expand their efficiency and capabilities. The citizen only prepared for daytime is only prepared for 50% of the year.
Deployed
Until recently the United States enjoyed Total Dominance during period of darkness. With the proliferation of reverse-engineered 3rd generation Night Vision systems, that advantage has waned. Death Ray Designs is committed to re-acquiring that overmatch in whatever way we can.
overall quality of life
Being in the field can absolutely fucking suck.
Each of our products is designed with user comfort and efficiency in mind, and we aim to make the experience of being in full battle rattle for days less shitty — even if its only one percent of one percent.
We run our own gear, not just because it’s the best, but to ensure that the complaints we aim to address are tackled without creating others
